Tejun reports seeing rare div0 crashes in memory.low stress testing:

This happens when parent_usage == siblings_protected.

We check that usage is bigger than protected, which should imply
parent_usage being bigger than siblings_protected.  However, we don't
read (or even update) these values atomically, and they can be out of
sync as the memory state changes under us.  A bit of fluctuation around
the target protection isn't a big deal, but we need to handle the div0
case.

Check the parent state explicitly to make sure we have a reasonable
positive value for the divisor.
